Marc Almond - The Sea Still Sings
================================
I remember the sea I remember
How I thought she would sing forever
Though her voice it became a whisper
But the sea still sings in her heart
To the furthest shores of Alaska
From the bow of a floundering tanker
Her shores in eternal winter
But the sea still sings in her heart
She waits for the moment so still and alone
On her shoreline a necklace of feather and bone
No laughter of children where nothing will grow, but
Chorus
The sea still sings
The sea still sings
The sea still sings
In her heart
I remember the sea I remember
How she rose in a terrible anger
On a stormy night in September
How the sea still sings in her heart
Taking back all her stolen treasure
Giving back all our waste with pleasure
Hand in hand with the furious weather
How the sea still sings in her heart
No longer distraught and no longer alone
She took all our shorelines and made them her own
Drowned all the people asleep in their homes
Repeat chorus
The mermaids were singing a warning
The mermen were teasing and taunting
The sirens a song that was haunting
Tearing each ship from its mooring
And the sea shed her black coat of mourning
I remember the sea I remember
The stillness and calm of the water
And a song that went on forever
Repeat chorus
Suede - Pieces of My Mind
================================
In the corner of your mind
There's a place you go to hide
Where the lonely years reside
There's a secret life for sale
Watch the world inside your brain
Where the people come to say
Take the pieces of your life
Send the message to the sky
Mend the pieces of your mind
Take a look inside of you
Tell me what to say and do
Mend the pieces of your mind
In the corner of your head
Where the world sits back instead
And the pieces that you'll send
There's a light that sights unseen
Watch the world in slide machines
In the corner of your dream
Take the pieces of your life
Send the message to the sky
Mend the pieces of your mind
Take a look inside of you
Tell me what to say and do
Mend the pieces of your mind
Let the music play again
Let the songs all stay the same
Mend the pieces of your mind
Take the pieces of your life
Send the message to the sky
Mend the pieces of your mind
David - To Live & Die
================================
The lost (last?) days and earth were surreal
Packed his life away, headed
for the hills - with
numbers on our backs
and a deflated sense of self
Motivated by the lack,
Motivated by the lack and wealth
a hole in the soul creates an influx of stardust
what will you do when
heaven falls from the sky,
what will you do
when you live and die with evil
Pacing the floor, the room dissolves
his head is falling
the water in reserve
has failed to preserve
Boys in the court yard, the roof's on fire
burning the complex - my dreams come next
will you ever forget that this occurred
will you ever have the nerve
when you live and die with evil
when you live and die with evil
Japan - Nightporter
================================
Could I ever explain
This feeling of love it just lingers on
The fear in my heart that keeps telling me which way to turn
We'll wander again
Our clothes they are wet
We shy from the rain
Longing to touch all the places we know we can hide
The width of a room that can hold so much pleasure inside
Here am I alone again
A quiet town where life begins
Here am I just wondering
Nightporters go
Nightporters slip away
I'll watch for a sign
And if I should ever again cross your mind
I'll sit in my room and wait until nightlife begins
I'm catching my breath
We'll both brave the weather again
Here am I alone again
A quiet town where life gives in
Here am I just wondering
Nightporters go
Nightporters slip away |
